    It really gets on my nerves when you middle-click on a hyperlink and then it pops open in a new tab, can that be disabled altogether? Also, when I download something almost instantly, the Downloads Tab fails to display, it just says All Downloads Have Finished ect... If a Download takes over a second it just pops up as a Tab as I made it in Tab Mix Plus? How can this be fixed?

  2. I've had no problems with this previously, but I've recently come across this problem that has been bugging me a lot. Whenever I select a Quicktime HD (say, the 300 Trailer, but it happens with everything - http://www.apple.com/trailers/wb/300/hd/) then I get the Downloader come up, as per normal, which is great. I can stream it, but in no way can I bloody Download it, for this happens: This happens in both FF and IE.

    Now it's known as AVG Anti-Spyware. It'll go through some testing before it's sent out in any anti-malware packages. Looks like the user interface got a slight makeover as well. I'm going to look into it further after work today. :D

    Hi everybody! I was wondering if anyone knows of a simple, LIGHTWEIGHT note-pad taking device (the Post-It widget is great, but Konfobulator itself takes way to much RAM). It would need to have copy+paste abilities, and a save feature would be nice, but not much besides that. Anyone have any suggestions?

    https://wiki.lunarsoft.net/wiki/Myths Please add any and all sites that support the truth. I'm currently looking for some good anti-defrag pages to link to. Pages I want to link to about defrag will hopefully fall under these guidelines: * Doesn't say defrag is "useless" in XP, or on NTFS, or with fast drives, because it isn't useless * (Optional) : doesn't mention myths that don't exist, like "NTFS doesn't get fragmented at all" * Benchmarking data about the performance gain of NTFS versus FAT32 in general * Benchmarking data about the performance gain from defragmenting FAT32 * Some data about the lack of performance gain from defragme…

    So I've been using Hamachi for quite a while now. It's a program that creates a virtual network between your computers, and encrypts all traffic sent over that virtual network. So in essence - I'm sitting here at my university, and I can browse my Windows shares at home, at full speed, and everything is encrypted. Another nice thing about it - you can use it to easily check the status of a network of computers. If you have the latest beta installed, simply enable "Web presence" in the options, and then use the script that gamehead200 made - as seen here. If you haven't tried it out, you should. :D

    A friend of mine downloaded some files that appear to be jpg files and tried unsuccessfully to delete them. He's not getting any error message, the files just will not delete. He ran his antivirus and spyware scans, nothing came up (btw, he's using SP2). How can he get these items deleted? Do you need more information? Thanks! :D

    The Mozilla Foundation announced Tuesday the availability of Release Candidate 1 of its Firefox 2 browser, but warned that its free, open-source browser might have a few leftover bugs and suggests only experienced users and developers download the latest version. Using Firefox 2 is supposed to mean safer surfing. The browser will reportedly detect when a fraudulent site--like a bogus eBay or PayPal--has been accessed and will alert the user with a dialog box and grayed-out window, according to CNET Reviews' initial take on the browser. Link: -> FF2 RC1. OK OJ? ______________________________ Cheers from your intrepid webreporter

    I've been trying to email a video taken with a digital camera. I compressed it to a ZIP file, and when I try to send it via email, my computer freezes. What am I doing wrong? Or do you need more information? And no, I haven't switched to Thunderbird yet, lol.

    Features such as UTF-8? The bug reports that get reported fixed? It's own backup folder with the application? There are numerous things users complain about, key, critical issues that should be resolved. If we look at things, we have: Bug reports simply get ignored No Unicode support at all Overuse of ActiveX/OCX files for everything Visual Basic application Some elements within the application do not function as they should ...and many more So what's wrong with all of this? Well, let's start with the top of the list and go through it. Bug reports get ignored by the author. Heck, we rarely even seem him post after all…
